Honestly it fully sucks at this point. No pros.

Inconvénients

Where do I begin. As a woman, I was paid just about half what my male colleagues were paid. When I left I was not paid what the company owed me in commission and then was forced to file a lawsuit as the only recourse in order to get paid. The executive team is an absolute disastrous revolving door. Cannot keep execs on board and then they end up putting all of the responsibilities on middle management. Middle management is also mostly incompetent. They are usually external hires even while there's always a steady supply of talented, dedicated, tenured folks that deserve promotions into those positions(usually women which is probably why they aren't given credit for their work and promoted), and their only job security lies within the fact that their bosses keep getting fired or quitting. As far as the sales team goes, I think 2018 was the last good year for us. Since then, the targets are placed higher every year to a completely unattainable degree. Nobody makes quota. Therefore nobody makes money. A really unhealthy culture ensues from there. They are of course obsessed with the trajectory of a successful tech company and delusional impending IPO, but they simply aren't there yet and with this type of mismanagement, I, along with many others who've left the org, are certain it's no longer possible. All of the employees are brought into this dumpster fire with lots of glitz and glamour and it takes a little while to understand how these complete delusions and lies can impact your life when you are promised all the perks of working at a successful tech company. But a year passes, you don't get credit for any of your work, everyone is passive aggressive, everyone is bullshitting, the tension is insane, you don't get the bonuses or unlimited time off or hands off management in the long run. You get burnout, stolen from, and gaslit. I spent 2 more years there because sales leadership begged me to keep hanging on and promised me promotions and money because even they knew the dysfunction was rampant and any sane person would be outta there. I think I was lucky to have joined the company and had a baseline of a good first year. Now, I think a lot of people suffer right out of the gate there. There is an unusually high turnover rate in all positions. People come in and leave 3-8 months later all. the. time. That's not a fun thing to explain in your next job interview. Save yourself the grief. This place felt like an abusive relationship. It gave me anxiety, nightmares, and all the rest. I would not encourage anyone to join. If you are desperate and need the job, be very smart about how much effort you put in and make sure you calculate your moves so that it benefits your next career move.

Avantages

- The coworkers are genuinely amazing: smart, kind, and deeply supportive. Many people truly care about doing the right thing and helping each other succeed. - The mission is meaningful. Supporting the global community of ethical hackers is powerful, and the work has real impact on improving security across the internet.

Inconvénients

- Since the arrival of the new CEO, nearly the entire C-suite has been replaced in under a year. This has created an environment of fear, risk aversion, and excessive CYA behavior. - HackerOne used to value transparency and open dialogue. “An honest question gets an honest answer” was more than a motto—it was lived. Today, people are afraid to ask honest questions, and answers are often vague corporate speak rather than real explanations. - A new AI engineer role was created with a pay band roughly 40% higher than existing software engineers. In practice, some software engineers are doing the same work for significantly less pay, which has caused frustration and morale issues. - The company once had a strong, people-first culture. That culture has eroded to the point where layoffs have occurred while employees were on maternity leave. - A newly hired VP in engineering focused on AI appears more interested in empire-building and optics with the C-suite than in empowering teams. Accountability is demanded without corresponding agency, and blame is often pushed downward when decisions don’t work out.
